would a damsel be ok?

[zippykat]

I currently have a 24g nano-cube reef tank with x2-true percs & x1-cleaner wrasse.

Would the addition of x1-Three Striped Damsel be ok? Would it be too aggressive? or would my current fish be too territorial?

Thank you for any suggestions!

I think it would be too aggressive! I have one in a 150 gallon and if i put my hand in the tank he attacks my arm and chases other smaller fish in the tank

A single chromis would be ok: it's a damsel, but wellbehaved---for a damsel, quite timid, actually. And always in motion. Get a very small one, and I recommend the blue varient. A single chromis always has high color. IN a group, only the dominant is high color.

Three striped damsels are very aggressive. By the way, your cleaner wrasse is probably going to starve to death. They should be left in the wild, unless you have hundreds of other fish for them to clean.

I have a tank bred cleaner wrasse. He is quite healthy and growing.

I agree that the wild ones should be left in the wild. I am a bit of a nut about getting only fish and coral that have been tank bred/aquacultured. My percs are also tank bred.

Thanks for the info on the damsel

definatley stay away from the damsel. I broke down someones tank and got a couple clowns, salfin tang and 2 3 striped damsels and they were all ok until I added a new fish. Now they are constantly harrasing my powder blue tank and Its damn near inpossible to catch them in my 150 gal. Im sooo stupid I told my wife before I added them I was making a mistake. lol
